Hello list. I thought I would share with you some information about a new music technology that I have become enthralled with.It is XM Sattelite Radio.I have it in my car,I have it hooked to my home stereo,and I even have it playing through my computer at this very moment.Reading all the posts from the ptg list is very enjoyable when it is accompanied by good classical music.Currently they are playing Hayden's Symphony No.102.This technology is affordable and readily available.You can find the XM Radio website easily on the net.You can get the PC Version for about $80.00 and then $10.00 a month.If you get a system for your car,additional system subscriptions only add $6.50 to your monthly bill. There are over 100 stations rangeing from Rap and Hip Hop to Oldies from the Big Band Era.Most stations are comercial free.The reception is allways clear digital stereo sound.I have found only one or two dead spots in my area,and they are so small I drive back into range within 30 seconds. I also enjoy their live concerts from their state of the art performance studio.I have the pleasure of tuneing the Stienway B in the studio and then hearing my tuning on the radio as I drive home.They have had Jazz greats like Wynton Marsalis,Roy Hargrove,and Kenny Garret,as well as classical performances. XM Radio originates in WAshington DC and the signal is heard across the country. Thanks for your time,and I hope you check it out. Robin Olson RPT
